ScribbleLive- LiveBlogging
As we know there is the blogging, and the micro-blogging. Wordpress vs. Blogger. Twitter vs. Friendfeed. There is ScribbleLive. It works like Twitter or Friendfeed, but is all in one place in a coherent way. You can log in to ScribbleLive with a Facebook, Twitter, MSN, Flickr, or OpenID. It lives on a blog or website, where it’s easily found; that’s a pretty serious advantage over Twitter or Friendfeed, where things tend to get jumbled and stored in a number of places, and become hard to find after a while.
Just come to the site: ScribbleLive. If you’re not sure how to have a blog that you live-blog updates to, ScribbleLive is a fairly basic application with some great features to it, that lets you simply and easily live-blog just about anything you can think of. It’s mostly used for events and conferences (Apple’s WWDC was a popular choice for live-blogging), but the uses are only limited by your imagination.
Once you’re logged in, set some basic preferences like background and text color, size, and whether or not to show avatars. Then click “Save,” and congrats – you’re live-blogging! Type something into the box or upload an image, press Enter, and you’re off!
It’s ease to adding content. just typing and pressing Enter, and your data keeps updating. Ever wonder how to have a blog where multiple people can post instant updates? With ScribbleLive, you can invite others to join in the fun, either as commenters or authors themselves. ScribbleLive can also be connected to Twitter and have a particular person’s tweets shown during the live-blog. Each event even has its own unique email address – so feel free to send texts or emails to the address, and they’ll get posted as well.
As a reader, it’s a great way to keep updated even when you can’t be in the room. For both, I’ve got nothing bad to say about ScribbleLive.
